The change was made to discourage tanking, as finishing with one of the worst…

Look, I understand my job each week in my quizzes is to educate, illuminate and entertain you (and occasionally frustrate you as you attempt to go 9-for-9). I'm definitely not here to bring you down, even in a memorial for those we lost in 2022. I look at it more as a celebration of their lives and hopefully give you something to further remember…

For all the talk about how division races supposedly don't matter as much as they used to -- and I can think of a couple No. 1 and No. 2 seeds who would very much disagree with you -- it still means something to be able to call yourself a champion. I guarantee you there are Guardians fans who have 2022 AL Central champs shirts. It might not be the…

As you know, predicting baseball is a fool's errand. It's also the most common activity of sportswriters during the offseason. When they're not writing about which team Carlos Correa signed with today, they're writing about what's going to happen in the coming season. Or, in the case of Will Leitch at MLB.com, what's going to happen in the next ten…

The Rays are among AL contenders while the A's are expected to be one of the league's bottom-feeders. Oakland has been competitive in the first two games of the series, but we like Wander Franco & Co. to grab a statement win tonight in our betting picks. The Oakland Athletics and Tampa Bay Rays face off in the third game of a four-game set at…

The Orioles have not ruled out signing a veteran free agent for the rotation, but their choices are dwindling by the day. Baltimore could acquire a top arm via trade, but it's hardly a guarantee. Fans cannot fix up the O's and Marlins on a blind date regardless of how strong a match they appear to be. It's perfectly plausible that Mike Elias and…

With the 2021 MLB season upon us, we will take a look at how the AL East appears to be shaping up.

The rotation does not look great and the lineup has a ton of…

Is it just me, or is the Orioles' roster going in circles? Yesterday the O's made a couple of surprising transactions, designating first baseman Ryan O'Hearn for assignment just two days after they'd acquired him from the Royals.

Well, that was disappointing. The Orioles had a chance to go.500 in the month of May with a win last night. But instead they laid an absolute egg, falling 10-0 to the visiting Mariners.

One time Oakland A's prospect Renato Nunez has found an opportunity for the 2023 season. The Toros de Tijuana in the Mexican League announced that they have signed Nunez for the upcoming season.

Last month, James McCann was traded to the Baltimore Orioles. The catcher had become expendable after the New York Mets signed former All-Star catcher Omar Narváez to a one-year, $8 million contract with a player option for 2024 worth $7 million. McCann has two years and $24 million left on his contract, and the Orioles will assume $5 million of…

Pitchers and catchers report next month. Somewhere in the middle of it. A long way from Opening Day on March 30 in Boston, but the distance is shrinking.
